Using Kazam or OBS to record my screen always results in a blank screen. Google searches do not show results for 19.04, only past versions. Any help?

  If using Wayland instead of X, most screen recorders currently don't work (applications lack permission to see pixels outside their window). See askubuntu.com/questions/1097784 for a list of those that do work with Wayland.

  What happens when you install Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS, install and test Kazam and OBS, alongside your 19.04 install? Kazam development is inactive so stabler releases may work where bleeding edge interim releases fail. Please click edit and report the results. Please don't click on Add Comment; use edit instead.

After looking through some comments, I have found that you need to have XORG video server enabled. You can check that by running echo $(XDG_SESSION_TYPE). If it says Wayland, then you take these steps:
1. Save your files and logout of you account.
2. Go to login normally, but do not click 'sign in'. Instead, click the gear beside the 'sign in' button.
3. Select either 'Ubuntu' if you also see 'Ubuntu on Wayland' as an option, or 'Ubuntu on XORG'.
And you can now use Screencast.
